1
Brown mince, onion & mushroom with a little olive oil in deep fry pan.

Turn to medium heat.
3
Add crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, kidney beans (save liquid in case mix gets dry, & add as needed), curry powder, garlic and basil.
4
Stir in well.
5
Add hardest veggies first, adding softer ones later so they dont go too mushy.
6
Let simmer covered until cooked how you like.
7
While mince is cooking, make mashed potato: needs to be smooth and of medium consistency so it doesnt fall into meat,but spreads evenly.
8
Easiest way to make mash, is to chop potato into small bite size pieces, place in microwave dish and cover with boiling water.
9
Cook covered on high for about 4 minutes, stir, then another 3 mins (may need more or less depending on power of your microwave).
10
Drain water, then mash with a dollop of butter or margarine.
11
Once as lump-free as possible, add enough milk to make creamy but not so much that it's sloppy, and stir briskly with a fork.
12
Place mince in ovenproof dish, spread mash over top, put thinly sliced tomato on top, sprinkle grated cheese evenly over the top.
13
Put under grill or in a medium oven until brown and cheese is melted.
